Is Ofloxacin Safe For Loose Stool?

Suffering with loose motions... I am 32 year old woman. I don t have any medicine at home except ofloxacin oral suspension prescribed for my 2 year old few months back. Can I take this medicine ? I can go to doctor after 10 am. Meanwhile wanted some medicine ad I passed watery stools twice in 1 hour.

Hi
i appreciate your concern
in my opinion you should have plenty of fluids and ORS to avoid dehydration
maintain adequate hydration and good hygiene
tab pantopeazole once daily
tab tinadazole 500 mg thrice daily

Pediatric preparation of oflaxacin will not help you any so please don't take it

visit your doctor for stool test and further treatment if it doesn't stop

Hope I have answered your question
Thanks for using HCM
Take care
